The Odyssey

I'm gonna sing what I want
Gonna do what I want
Gonna live in the sky
On a na.tu.ral high

In the quest for the "truth", the "reality" our "true calling" and all those fancy shmancy words we keep hearing and aiming for, day in and day out, we forget the beauty of aimlessness and the importance to dwell.
Through a forced bed rest, I half-heartedly escaped the corporate world for almost a week. They say, you should do one thing you're afraid of, every day. Through excruciating pain I did just that. Treading the forbidden grounds always buries you in the murky swamp of guilt. If you're just careful enough to not hurt anyone, you realise those boundaries are superficial and self imposed. Letting go may not help you focus or find that "purpose of life" but it sure helps you live.
Polishing off a giant bar of chocolate might make you gain a few pounds and give you a couple of zits but rumour has it that chocolate triggers the brain to produce endorphins (or serotinin, or dopamine) which is what the brain produces when you make love. Something that feels so beautiful can't be all that bad.
Day 1 as I unleash my wayward spine unto the world outside. Let's see how they do.

Every snowflake yearns to touch the ground, to melt, to change it's state, be something it isn't yet, whether it's water, ice or a snowball. Change is but a constant. Keep Commenting...let me know what you think.
